Maori Bible
10 Whakarongo ki te kupu kua korerotia nei e Ihowa ki a koutou, e te whare o Iharaira:
2 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kaua e akona te ara o nga tauiwi, kaua ano e wehi i nga tohu o te rangi; e wehi ana hoki nga tauiwi i aua mea.
3 He mea teka noa hoki nga tikanga a nga iwi: e tapahia ana hoki e tetahi he rakau i roto i te ngahere, he mahi na nga ringa o te kaimahi, ki te titaha.
4 Kei te whakapaipai i taua mea ki te hiriwa, ki te koura, whakamau rawa ki nga titi, ki nga hama, te taea te whakakorikori.
5 He rite aua mea ki te nikau, i ata mahia, kahore ia he kupu; me amo, he kore no ratou e haere. Kaua e wehi i a ratou, no te mea e kore e taea e ratou te kino, kahore hoki e ahei i a ratou te mea i te pai.
6 Kahore rawa he rite mou, e Ihowa; he nui koe, he nui ano tou ingoa i runga i te kaha.
7 Ko wai e kore e wehi i a koe, e te Kingi o nga iwi? he tika hoki tena ki a koe; no te mea i roto i nga tangata whakaaro nui katoa o nga iwi, i roto i o ratou kingitanga katoa, kahore he rite mou.
8 Huihuia ratou, he poauau rawa, he wairangi: ko ta nga whakapakoko e whakaako ai, he rakau tonu ia.
9 E maua mai ana he hiriwa paraharaha i Tarahihi, he koura i Upata, he mahi na te kaimahi, na nga ringa ano o te kaiwhakarewa koura: he puru, he papura o ratou kakahu; he mea mahi katoa na te hunga tohunga.
10 Ko Ihowa ia te Atua pono, ko ia te Atua ora, he kingi pumau tonu; ka riri ia, ka wiri te whenua, e kore ano nga iwi e kaha ake ina aritarita ia.
11 Kia penei ta koutou ki atu ki a ratou, Ko nga atua kihai nei i hanga i te rangi, i te whenua, ka ngaro i runga i te whenua, i raro atu ano hoki nga rangi.
12 Nana i hanga te whenua, na tona kaha hoki; ko te ao he mea whakapumau na ona whakaaro nui; ko nga rangi he mea hora na tona matauranga.
13 Ka puaki tona reo, he haruru wai kei nga rangi, e meinga ana e ia nga kohu kia pupu ake i nga pito o te whenua; e hanga ana e ia nga uira mo te ua, e whakaputaina mai ana te hau i roto i ona whare taonga.
14 Poauau kau nga tangata katoa, a kahore he mohio: ko nga kaiwhakarewa koura katoa whakama iho i te whakapakoko: he mea teka hoki tana i whakarewa ai, kahore hoki he wairua i roto.
15 He horihori kau ratou, he mahi pohehe; i te wa e pa ai ia ki a ratou ka ngaro.
16 Kahore e rite ki era te wahi i a Hakopa; ko ia hoki te kaiwhakaahua o nga mea katoa; ko Iharaira hoki te iwi o tona kainga tupu, ko Ihowa o nga mano tona ingoa.
17 Kohikohia au mea i te whenua, e koe e noho na i te pa e whakapaea ana.
18 Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, Tenei ahau te piupiu atu nei i nga tangata o te whenua i tenei wa, te whakatupu kino nei hoki i a ratou, kia kitea ai e ratou.
19 Aue, te mate i ahau, mamae rawa toku marutanga: otiia kua mea nei ahau, He pono noku tenei mate, me whakamanawanui.
20 Kua pahuatia toku teneti, ko aku aho motumotu katoa: kua rito atu aku tamariki i toku taha, kua kore: kahore ake he tangata hei whakamaro i toku teneti, hei whakaara i oku kakahu arai.
21 Kua poauau nei hoki nga hepara; kihai a Ihowa i rapua e ratou; na reira i kore ai e tika ta ratou, ka marara hoki a ratou kahui katoa.
22 Nana, te haere mai nei te reo o nga korero, nui atu te whakaohooho, no te whenua ki te raki, hei mea i nga pa o Hura hei ururua, hei nohoanga mo nga kirehe mohoao.
23 E mohio ana ano ahau, e Ihowa, kahore o te tangata ara i a ia ake ano: kahore hoki i te tangata e haereere nei mana e whakatikatika ona hikoinga.
24 Pakia ahau, e Ihowa, me te whakariterite ano ia; kauaka ina riri koe, kei kahore ahau i a koe.
25 Ringihia atu tou riri ki nga tauiwi kahore nei e matau ki a koe, ki nga hapu kahore nei e karanga ki tou ingoa; kua pau hoki a Hakopa i a ratou, ae ra, pau rawa, moti rawa, ko tona mohoanga hoki whakaururuatia ana e ratou.

New International Version
Jeremiah 10
New International Version
God and Idols(A)
10 Hear what the Lord says to you, people of Israel. 2 This is what the Lord says:
“Do not learn the ways of the nations(B)
or be terrified by signs(C) in the heavens,
though the nations are terrified by them.
3 For the practices of the peoples are worthless;
they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman(D) shapes it with his chisel.(E)
4 They adorn it with silver(F) and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.(G)
5 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,
their idols cannot speak;(H)
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.(I)
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm(J)
nor can they do any good.”(K)
6 No one is like you,(L) Lord;
you are great,(M)
and your name is mighty in power.
7 Who should not fear(N) you,
King of the nations?(O)
This is your due.
Among all the wise leaders of the nations
and in all their kingdoms,
there is no one like you.
8 They are all senseless(P) and foolish;(Q)
they are taught by worthless wooden idols.(R)
9 Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish(S)
and gold from Uphaz.
What the craftsman and goldsmith have made(T)
is then dressed in blue and purple—
all made by skilled workers.
10 But the Lord is the true God;
he is the living God,(U) the eternal King.(V)
When he is angry,(W) the earth trembles;(X)
the nations cannot endure his wrath.(Y)
11 “Tell them this: ‘These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, will perish(Z) from the earth and from under the heavens.’”[a]
12 But God made(AA) the earth(AB) by his power;
he founded the world by his wisdom(AC)
and stretched out the heavens(AD) by his understanding.
13 When he thunders,(AE) the waters in the heavens roar;
he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth.
He sends lightning(AF) with the rain(AG)
and brings out the wind from his storehouses.(AH)
14 Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
every goldsmith is shamed(AI) by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(AJ)
they have no breath in them.
15 They are worthless,(AK) the objects of mockery;
when their judgment comes, they will perish.
16 He who is the Portion(AL) of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the Maker of all things,(AM)
including Israel, the people of his inheritance(AN)—
the Lord Almighty is his name.(AO)
Coming Destruction
17 Gather up your belongings(AP) to leave the land,
you who live under siege.
18 For this is what the Lord says:
“At this time I will hurl(AQ) out
those who live in this land;
I will bring distress(AR) on them
so that they may be captured.”
19 Woe to me because of my injury!
My wound(AS) is incurable!
Yet I said to myself,
“This is my sickness, and I must endure(AT) it.”
20 My tent(AU) is destroyed;
all its ropes are snapped.
My children are gone from me and are no more;(AV)
no one is left now to pitch my tent
or to set up my shelter.
21 The shepherds(AW) are senseless(AX)
and do not inquire of the Lord;(AY)
so they do not prosper(AZ)
and all their flock is scattered.(BA)
22 Listen! The report is coming—
a great commotion from the land of the north!(BB)
It will make the towns of Judah desolate,(BC)
a haunt of jackals.(BD)
Jeremiah’s Prayer
23 Lord, I know that people’s lives are not their own;
it is not for them to direct their steps.(BE)
24 Discipline me, Lord, but only in due measure—
not in your anger,(BF)
or you will reduce me to nothing.(BG)
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations(BH)
that do not acknowledge you,
on the peoples who do not call on your name.(BI)
For they have devoured(BJ) Jacob;
they have devoured him completely
and destroyed his homeland.(BK)
